    ok...so prob not in the right forum but Im new to the whole lifting a tacoma....I just orderd the 5100 kit from toytec yesterday; the one that comes just w/ frt and rear shocks as well as the 1 1/2 tsb aal....I will be using my original coils on the frt w/ the new shocks.
    My question to you all is; should I set the shock at 1.75 or 2"????
    I will eventually go to a 275/70/17 tire (wrangler silent armor) have 265/70/17 duratracs now that are about half done.
    I want to keep truck level or closer to factory rake...
    Jus tryin to get an idea of which setting i should put the shock in so i dont have to fuss around w/ spring compressors too much
    Thanks for any info, input help!!!!!

    So do you just have that little tail hanging out (on the left side in the video) or did you cut and burn it close to the end of the wrap?
